  • ELI5 Why are most Americans news outlets keep saying we are flying to the moon? When in all actuality we are flying around it?

    Jump

  • 5000 miles away from the moon isn't "to the moon" the same way as me living in Paris isn't living in Minnesota.

  • When countries around the world start enforcing biometrics and digital passports for travel, would you still do traveling or just hide in some farm off grid?

    Jump

  • Travel does not have to involve lots of money. I live 9 km from the French border and 25 km from the Swiss border. Travelling there costs me the price of a train ticket.

    I take my biometric passport with me, of course.

  • Hoppy Easter

    Jump

  • The Easter Bunny is a hare, not a rabbit.

  • Most of plant based leather uses a lot of polyurethane

    Jump

  • Plastic is just as bad for the environment, not to mention people's health, as those cows.

  • [OC] Human specimen

    Jump

  • Ejection chair of downed F15 plane over Iran

    Jump

  • The Daily Mail 😆.

    Newsweek claims other news outlets like CNN, have also identified it, but no, they have not.

  • What jobs do people from very upper-class wealthy families get? Or don't they have jobs and live off their families' wealth?

    Jump

  • Doctor, surgeon, lawyer, owner and founder of a furniture factory, biologist, writer and creator of dictionaries, physicist, software developer. Those are the jobs of the rich people (upper class and multi- millionaires) I know.

    I'm blocking you now because I'm sick of your rage baity, stupid posts.

  • Why does the colour blonde apparently only exist in human hair?

    Jump

  • What's wrong with Ellen DeGeneres?

    Jump

  • You claim something, you present sources. That's how it goes.

  • Why do some people with college degrees and an education, still act so fucking stupid?

    Jump

  • People keep saying that, but it's bullshit. In many countries outside the US, people can only do a degree if they've proven that they're intelligent.

    But intelligent people can be really stupid too.

  • Why do some people with college degrees and an education, still act so fucking stupid?

    Jump

  • Nothing to do with rich people. Good education is free in Germany and people who have a higher education can be just as stupid.

  • What is your preferred form of proportional representation, and why?

    Jump

  • In Germany they eliminate anyone with less than 4% and it was disastrous for Brandenburg. It basically meant that the right wing parties had no opposition.

  • In Israel, a rabbinical judge can force couples into divorce if the wife dresses indecently

    Jump

  • What do you carry in your pockets or with you daily?

    Jump

  • Not a lot, my pockets are tiny. Currently I have one tissue.

  • Is Oman neutral from the war?

    Jump

  • If they don't want war, they shouldn't allow the US military to use their bases ports.

  • Do you let your dog or cat up on your bed?

    Jump

  • Cat: absolutely. Dog: no, dogs stink and roll in poo and other smelly things.

    I miss my kitty sleeping on my head.

  • Biggest bridge in Iran(B1 bridge) was destroyed by US and Israel.

    Jump

  • They also destroyed the Pasteur Institute. They're just bombing random shit.

  • People over 30, how are you taking care of yourselves?

    Jump

  • Nope. I've never been into junk food and alcohol anyway.

  • The forest guy

    Jump

  • Orang means human or person (not "guy", honestly), (h)utan means forest.
